Ash

The first thing you'll notice about our newest HMBoy Ash is that he's a genuinely blond - ash blond, in fact, so hence the nickname.

And even the Boss - who generally likes his boys to look dark and hunky - thought that Ash was one of the hottest looking blond kids that he'd seen in quite some time.

"Real boy-next-door type", he said when he first took a look at Ash's pics.

"Just right for HMBoys."

Of course, whenever we discuss the colour of a boy's hair, the first thing that anyone does is to scroll down the picture set to check out the pubes.

Are they the same colour?

Sadly, in Ash's case, his decision to shave the lot off (very common in 18 year olds these days, but something we try to discourage whenever we can) means that he's knocked any possibility of detective work on the follicles on the head - though close inspection (recommended!) of Ash's ass suggests that the hair on his head is probably the real thing.

The other distinguishing feature that struck us at once about Ash is his pale body.

He tells us that he burns very easily in the sun but, as you can see in the pictures, when we shot his pictures it was a bright day but it wasn't particularly warm.

In fact, it was positively chilly to start with (for obvious reasons we like to begin early, before anyone else is out and about) and poor Ash initially found it quite difficult to... how shall we put it?... work up the necessary enthusiasm.

So, by the time that we'd got all 176 pictures in the can, the poor kid was pretty exhausted.

"I'm all burned out", he said.

How appropriate, then, we thought to ourselves, that he's called Ash.
